2018 Virginia Football Opponent Preview: Duke Blue Devils

Maybe the only team in the ACC that the Virginia Cavaliers have been able to figure out under Head Coach Bronco Mendenhall has been Duke. In his first two years, the Hoos have handled the Blue Devils, despite being underdogs in both contests. Last year, UVA won 28-21, highlighted by a pick-six from Quin Blanding and two Doni Dowling touchdowns. Duke’s quarterback, Daniel Jones, their expected starter again this season, went just 14-42 for 124 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions.

2017 Season: 7-6 (3-5 ACC)

Duke was an enigma last season.
